I want to thank Antony Fetch, Timbos's opponent in the Englishtown run, for a phone call yesterday about their run. He told me to look up the video, which I had, and now Wade M. has highlighted it. Thomas might have hit the brakes too hard or long, but Timbo didn't, period. The car has an issue, obviously.

I guess that's one problem with not driving your own car all the time, things can start happening that you aren't aware of. I haven't fully debriefed my drivers yet, but the point will be made clear that feedback on all facets of the car's performance is required.

Some may want to pontificate on the hard braking issue, but it's part of bracket racing, like it or not. You brake as quickly and as strongly as you can safely do. Safely being the key word, and in our case it apparently wasn't, given the combination of car and driver at that moment. I'm off to go fix and inspect my car.
